Interactive 3D dark ride in three different Legoland parks
Looopings describes how LEGO NINJAGO The Ride was rolled out across several European Legoland parks, with Billund already operating the interactive Triotech dark ride.
More context
The article places NINJAGO The Ride at LEGOLAND Billund within a wider European rollout of the same interactive attraction. In 2017, Looopings reported that Legoland Deutschland had just opened its version and that Legoland Windsor would follow soon after, while the Billund installation had already been operating since the previous year. For the Danish resort, this meant guests were among the first in Europe to experience a dark ride combining 3D media, the NINJAGO universe and gesture based controls. Rather than relying on a conventional shooting device, the ride uses sensors that read hand movements, allowing riders to respond to the scenes with ninja style gestures. The system was developed by Triotech and fitted naturally with the popularity of Lego Ninjago across toys, television and the later theatrical film. Historically, the article shows how LEGOLAND Billund remained more than the original Lego park: it also served as an early European platform for new interactive ride concepts within the Merlin Entertainments portfolio.
